no, they will just fight each other and if they mate the offspring will look weird like when a lion and tiger mate the offspring will be called liger.

No they cannot mate. No "weird offspring" are possible. By the way, there is no such thing as a "black snake." Do you mean a king snake, perhaps, or a black racer?

No - they are not compatible species to mate - they don't even belong to the same country ! In fact - if the DID meet - the Rat Snake would be lunch for the Cobra !

No, they are in entirely different snake families and could not breed. Rattlesnakes give live birth while bull snakes lay eggs.

No, it is genetically and geographically impossible for a cobra and a rattlesnake to mate.

No, cobras are neurotoxic elapids that are Old World snakes. Rattlesnakes are New World vipers with primarily a cytotoxin or hemotoxin venom.
